Honkai Impact 3rd is not considered a small opening

Oh, right, Sakura's working hours are very unpredictable.

My mood inexplicably rose by two percentage points.

Carefully approaching Sakura from behind, An Yu prepared to give her a surprise.

However, Sakura's senses were far more acute than he had imagined.

Seeing that the surprise was over, An Yu reached out her hand, but since she was holding two super big cotton candies, it didn't seem appropriate to hug the other person.

"I miss you, Sakura."

Sakura's breath hitched for a moment. The phrase "once you've tasted the marrow, you'll know what it's all about" had started to describe something strange, but she really didn't want to experience that taste anymore.

But she was still very happy. Her tall figure leaned into An Yu's arms and hugged the boy.

Her tone was somewhat wistful: "What I'm more interested in is, who are those two cotton candies for?"

An Yu lowered her head and rubbed her chin against Ying's forehead with her hair: "You and Ling, who else could it be given to?"

Chapter 171: The Good Siblings of 169

Although Sakura herself doesn't particularly like cotton candy, since her boyfriend bought it for her, she'll definitely eat it.

She rarely ate these things before, only taking a bite or two when buying them for Ling, so they taste quite fresh now.

Standing to the side, holding An Yu's hand, he casually licked a cotton candy.

Until the school bell rang, the pink-haired, bouncy elementary school student appeared in sight.

Sakura's face lit up with joy, but then she lost all feeling in her hand. She looked expressionlessly at An Yu, who was equally enthusiastic, and sighed.

They have such a good relationship, like brother and sister.

Ling also noticed that the boy waving in the distance had become a little excited.

"Brother Anyu!"

Ignoring her sister beside her, Ling threw herself into An Yu's arms and rubbed against him fiercely.

"Ling!"

He ruthlessly abandoned his girlfriend Sakura, and instead half-squatted down and reached out to hug his adorable younger sister.

Wow, my little sister is so cute!

Sakura only thought they were noisy. She took the time to pick up her cute little sister and happened to run into her boyfriend. Shouldn't these be two wonderful things?

Why did things get so bad?

It wasn't over yet. Two minutes later, Sakura, holding Ling's hand in one hand and An Yu's hand in the other, thought the world had finally returned to peace. To achieve this, she even swallowed a whole cotton candy in one gulp.

However, both An Yu and Ling clearly have ADHD.

As Ling was licking the cotton candy, she suddenly noticed that An Yu, who was always greedy, hadn't eaten anything. She was immediately shocked: "An Yu, why aren't you eating?"

Given An Yu's personality, why would he only buy two servings? Could it be that he has cavities?

An Yu shook her head with a serious expression: "I'm a big kid now, I don't like sweets anymore."

The main reason was that he didn't expect to run into Sakura. He had originally planned to spend his lunch break with his younger sister and then go find Sakura in the afternoon.

What a coincidence! He couldn't very well go back and buy another one.

"Does An Yu have cavities?"

Ling's expression was somewhat bitter. She understood the harm of cavities, and that cavities were troublesome and would affect the time she could spend with her family.

An Yu's expression remained normal, as confident as ever: "The savior will not get sick, let alone a minor obstacle like a tooth decay."

An Yu is certain!

"Hey, An Yu, you can have mine, since Ling can't finish it all by herself."

As she spoke, Ling walked around her sister and reached out her little hand to put the cotton swab to An Yu's lips.

cherry:……

Sakura watched the scene unfold before her with a blank expression, and even after Ling skipped back to her right, she remained expressionless.

Oh, for a moment she almost sneered.

Feeling the sweetness in her mouth, An Yu was extremely satisfied: "Ling, how much rest time do you have during your lunch break?"

When Ling mentioned this, she lowered her head and said, "It's only two and a half hours, but the school gates will close early, so it's actually less than two hours."

An Yu estimated the time, which was about the same as when he was in elementary school. He knew that as long as there were more people in China, the competitive atmosphere would infect others, especially when they were not competing with themselves, but with their children.

Elementary school is relatively easy, middle school is more stressful, high school is a 1000-day grind, university is two years of fun followed by two years of study, and finally, it all depends on luck.

So Ling's dejection was completely unnecessary; she played for two hours and looked so beautiful that it was enviable.

"It's not a long time. I was originally planning to take you to the amusement park, but now that I think about it, let's just stroll around the neighborhood instead."

Sakura looked at An Yu with a calm expression. She originally wanted to say how could the school let the child be outside alone for so long, but after thinking about it, she realized that the current atmosphere was not suitable for pouring cold water on her feelings.

…………

"Brother An Yu! I want this!" Ling said, pointing to a bunch of helium balloons in an old man's hand, which were even shaped like the Homu Superman.

"Brother An Yu, Brother An Yu, the marbles they're selling here are so pretty!" She was just about to turn around and call out to Brother An Yu, but he was already standing next to her, admiring the marbles.

They're really beautiful! Lots of solid colors, and many that are crystal clear.

"An Yu-ge... I'm a little hungry, can we go eat first?"

After a while, Ling rubbed her stomach, which growled, sounding rather embarrassing.

An Yu continued to nod, looking at Ling, whose pockets were heavy and who was holding a Homu Superman balloon in her hand. He recalled some embarrassing things that happened a year ago.

He remembered how he and Alicia had foolishly asked Blanca if they could treat Gretchen as a shared baby...

Now he doesn't need to anymore. He has a super cute little sister, Ling, who's more obedient than Greta and doesn't require any of his care!

Greta? I don't know her at all!

"An Yu-ge, I want this."

An Yu nodded, "Buy it!"

"Brother An Yu, this, this!"

An Yu nodded, "Buy it!"

Speaking of which, Ling is really sensible. Most of the things she buys are not expensive and are things that children like to play with and eat.

Sigh, if I had been this well-behaved when I was a child, I probably wouldn't have had to endure so much scolding.

"An Yu-ge, I don't want to go to school this afternoon!"

An Yudian…wait, what did little Ling just say?

Sakura, expressionless, used her arm to brace against An Yu's chin to prevent him from nodding again in a moment of madness.

Then, with a relatively kind expression, she took Ling aside, feeling that Ling had some kind of mental problem.

Without saying a word, Sakura calmly gazed at Ling, but Ling, feeling that she had An Yu backing her up, surprisingly looked back at her sister with unusual confidence this time.

Sakura felt a strange sadness welling up inside her: "Why don't I want to go to school?"

My sister has changed, and the reason for her change is that she found a boyfriend.

Whose fault is this?

Ling stood with her hands on her hips, completely oblivious to the fact that she felt there was nothing wrong with her.

“I just don’t want to go. School is no fun or enjoyable. The teachers make us copy words all day long.”

"I really don't know what's so good about copying texts, and math too. I don't know where the teacher finds the problems, but they just project them on the blackboard all day long, and we're just doing the math."

"And it's not even difficult, it's just that there are too many steps. What's the point of cramming a bunch of identical steps into one question? Is it to test our attention to detail?"

"Besides! My sister is also a poor student! She can live so comfortably and even find An Yu to be her boyfriend. What's wrong with that?"

Ling felt that her theory was correct. Her older sister was also a poor student, and her sister didn't continue her studies. Her sister's job didn't use the knowledge she learned in school.

Furthermore, my sister not only supported the family but also secured her future. She found a handsome and young boyfriend who is also younger than her. In a few years, when they get together, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that she's an older woman dating a younger man.

An Yu is rich! Gentle! Powerful!

So, why do we need to go to school?

Chapter 172: Go to school, 170!

Ling felt that her theory was sound, unless her sister found a reason to refute it.

But does my sister have one? No, my sister doesn't!

It really does.

"Go back to eat, then go to school obediently, or I'll go on a honeymoon with your brother An Yu for a year."

Ling:......

Her expression suddenly turned slightly indignant. She just couldn't understand it! What was the point of going to school? Her older sister was actually abandoning her because of this? Was that reasonable?

An Yu rested her head on her arm, bored, and checked how many slices of meat were in the dish in front of her.

It wasn't until she saw Ling looking dejected after her defeat that An Yu regained her composure.

Ke Ling is a clever child. She knew that her older sister couldn't resist An Yu, so she seized the opportunity and jumped into An Yu's arms.

She pitifully raised her head, trying hard to squeeze out tears, but unfortunately, none came out.

"An Yu, I don't want to go to school."

Sakura was trembling with anger behind her; she couldn't handle this little sister anymore!

An Yu wasn't in a hurry. She pinched Ling's cheek, her expression somewhat puzzled: "Is it the teacher's problem? Or the student's problem? Or the school's problem?"

Ling was suddenly very conflicted. Was there something wrong with the teacher? She felt there was, but when she was chatting with her sister just now, it seemed that the adults didn't think there was anything wrong with the teacher.

My classmate is definitely fine.

After agonizing over her decision, Ling raised her little face and said, "It's a problem with the school."

An Yu wasn't in a hurry. He had known Ying for so long that visiting her was almost like visiting his own home. Now he had a killer move.

"The school didn't make you feel that studying was useful, did it?"

Ling nodded frantically. Apart from the teacher praising her as a good student and giving her an award certificate, she didn't feel that studying was of any use.

Children listen attentively in class so they can have fun after class, and they do their homework just to appease the teacher. It's hard for children to understand the true purpose of learning.

"But if Ling doesn't go to school, who will she play with?"

“Sakura’s work often leaves her home for days at a time, and as for me… Ling, you know I’m busy all the time, but I’ll definitely make time to come see you all.”

"So, without a school, it seems like Ling won't have any friends to play with now where she lives."

That's the real killer move; for a child, having no friends is tantamount to killing her.

There are no school-aged children near Ling's home, and her friends are all people she met at school.

Ling was stunned. It seemed like that was the case, but she had her own ideas: "It's okay, Brother An Yu, I'll go ask. None of the friends I know like going to school."

But it doesn't matter, because Ling often heard her friends complain, so she was pretty sure that her other friends didn't want to go to school either.

Then she'll unite everyone and drop out of school to start a rebellion at home!

An Yu: ...

What a proactive little guy!

But An Yu shook her head again, gently setting Ling aside to take good care of her.

"But Ling, will their parents be as open-minded as your brother An Yu?"

cherry:?

Wait, wait a minute, she felt something was off about the situation. Why was she playing the bad cop?

Shouldn't it be a strict father and a kind mother under normal circumstances?

Ling sniffed, and it seemed true; other children simply couldn't get past their parents' approval.

Soon, Ling resigned herself to her fate; otherwise, being alone at home would be too boring.

"Also, you may not realize the usefulness of studying now, but Ling, your brother graduated from university."
